@ebonybow | see you in the dark | kelsey i/ryan(/shane) | explicit | 2k | complete | Kelsey's first thought, when she sees Ryan tumble to the ground, is ‘oh shit, we're drunk on a shoot’. Her second thought is ‘help him’, as she reaches for his outstretched hand to pull him up off the ground. Ryan has other plans.
@kittensmctavish | talk simlish to me | kelsey i/shane | teen | 9.4k | complete | The thing is, the people in the comments...they’re not too far off the mark. About Kelsey having a crush.They’re just wrong about which Ghoul Boy it is.

fill for @rarebuzzships Kelsey Week!
Theta Beta and Phi Lambda are having their annual holiday cookout on the quad on the first day back for the winter semester. This is one of Kelsey’s favourite traditions: everyone’s coming together to cook and decorate a tree, even though Christmas ended two weeks ago.
They managed to get a big shipment of snow, and right now the boys are in their swimming trunks and boots, shirtless with Santa hats, building a huge snowman. They make him a face out of beer caps and top it off with a Theta Beta baseball cap. It’s such pure boyish fun, Kelsey can’t help looking fondly upon them.

fill for @rarebuzzships Kelsey Week!
Kelsey spends the next few weeks going through the motions. The only thing that keeps her afloat is the echo of that voice in her head, See you at the talent show .
She counts the days until she might see the anonymous biker again. Nothing matters to her but the possibility of seeing her again, talking to her again. Touching her again.
Schoolwork, of course, is at the very bottom of her priority list, and she probably would need Annie’s help again, if if things weren’t so strained between them.

fill for @rarebuzzships Femslash February!
You’d think Annie would be used to it by now. New school, new town, year after year… Her mom travels for work, and she always said she couldn’t stay in one place for more than a year. Annie learned early enough how to deal when you’re always the new kid. Stick to the walls and don’t make waves. Pay no mind to anyone else.
But college is... different. She’s here for four years. If things go south, she’s stuck here with the same people for like, half a decade. Stakes have never been higher and there’s no hope of a respite before graduation. She’s always felt like the odd one out, but here at Rydell College? Everything is so performative. Everyone wants to be seen, and they’re ready to do anything to be noticed.
It’s hard to mind your own business when everyone else is trying to stick theirs in your face.
Take today, for example. Annie’s sitting on the lawn, trying to get through Camus without falling asleep, when a squad of four dudebros drop down on the grass near her. Apparently, four feet away from her is prime grass real estate, even though the quad is almost empty.
Come join us in celebrating Kelsey I. ships, from June 3 to 7, 2019!

i’m gonna give y’all a sneak peek of Chapter 2 of Cool Rider since i’m literally gonna post my tr/y gu/y fic in like an hour
(The Girl here is Annie, in case anyone is wondering)
Kelsey’s knees still feel like jelly when she gets off the bike in front of the Lambda house. She drapes the leather jacket on the bike seat with the borrowed helmet, nervously playing with her hair.
The girl kicks the bike on its stand and gets off. They stand not one feet apart, and Kelsey can feel her warmth in the cool night air.
The girl’s hands go up to her helmet.
“Are you sure?” Kelsey asks, grazing her hands not knowing if she should stop her, if she wants to.
